FiPy Docker Instance using Ansible
I created a repository that
uses both Ansible and Docker to generate a Docker instance of
FiPy. The main benefit of using
Ansible in this situation is that it makes the developer generate a
very clearly formatted file for the installation procedure. See,
the Ansible YAML file. This
file could be reused outside of a Docker instance for installation as
well. A
setup.bash
is still required to bootstrap the Ansible installation in the event
that Ansible isn’t installed. The installation procedure that’s in
the Ansible YAML file could either be buried in the
setup.bash
or the
Dockerfile
. Ansible
seems to do a nice job of creating a clean set of declarative
statements for the installation procedure.
